Might be worth mentioning then that when you deploy to the SSISDB the protection level is removed (not from the project, but the deployed forms). The packages themselves on the server are encrypted, so you can't then query the database to get the sensitive data out.
I realise you say you've not got the expertise, however, SSISDB is a huge improvement on the old filesystem and msdb deployment models. I really recommend you consider it and training is that high either ; really just just the initial set up that needs some knowledge (and make sure you keep a backup of your SSISDB key!!!). After it's set up, the developers will find deploying much more of a "joy" than using a filesystem method. Agent jobs are much easier to manage as well; as the parameter mapping is vastly easier. I really can't think of any cons to using SSISDB over MSDB or filesystem deployment for SSIS.
